Blade Runner 2049‘s Denis Villeneuve has previously been rumored as a frontrunner for the job, but in a new interview with The Playlist (via Den of Geek) he confessed to being too busy with Dune to take it on at present:

“The thing is I don’t know about that. But listen. Daniel Craig is a very inspiring actor and I had some contact and the thing is that I’m busy right now doing Dune. But, I will say to have the privilege to work with him it would be a dream. I would love to work with Daniel and a Bond movie for me would be a treat. It’s a matter of timing, I guess.”

With Bond 25 set for October 2019, we’ve got to be getting a director announcement soon. Dare we hope for a woman this time around?

The new Wizarding World logo is being billed as a way to reflect what’s going on in the franchise over the next few years, but it also reveals that J.K. Rowling is finally allowing others to dive into her creation.
